I'd recommend switching to Imgur for the time-being.

But also, maybe in the future consider getting a bucket in Amazon S3 or something else for more long-term use.

Amazon AWS is more likely to hang around longer than Imgur, even.

Neal installed my new Perrin catback today along with a clutch fluid flush and tire rotate, can't recommend the racers line enough for all your twins needs. Great source of knowledge and expertise.

Couldn't be more happy about the new exhaust.

I came in the other day for Neal to perform my 60k Service. He was super friendly and down to earth and wasn't bothered by that fact that my gf and I bombarded him with questions. Felt great leaving my car with someone who knows these cars like the back of their hand. He provided honest feedback on what he noticed I should watch out for in the future and I'm definitely coming back in the future!

Thanks again Neal!

I live in Pleasant Hill, and I am really unhappy that I found out about this shop.
My credit card is going to take a big hit soon because of it lol

Sadly no. I'm about $50k and 500sq/ft short of getting one. I have a guy locally that I send customers too though!

The Racers Line! Northern California's FT86 Parts Sales and Installation Specialist

hey guys, I've been working with Neal @The Racers Line on a saggy front bumper fix day. I did some research and found this part by Kansai Service that is supposed to fix the saggy bumper problem...



http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...40#post2707340









so I ordered a bunch of them since I was gonna have to pay a bunch for shipping from Japan anyways. I bought 6 kits total. ** all spots filled! Thank you! ** after shipping and handling the cost comes down to $21 per kit. And I've arranged with Neal, we will do the install party on Saturday, Sept. 2 at Racers Line. I'm too scared to mess with my front bumper myself so I'd rather have Neal do it. I am not sure what Neal will charge for his labor but I don't imagine it will be too much.



note if you have already done a Quick Latch kit on your bumper I believe this will not work for you.



6 Spots for Install Day: Sat. Sept 2, 2017

1. PMok

2. Lewis

3. Edison

4. Scott

5. Shayne

6. Drakos

Not to derail this thread, but I'm down to jump in on this and spearhead the effort for bumper sag. If we can get (me + xxyion) - 4 more people and get another party going on at Neals.

Yeah definitely, all it takes is someone to order a bunch of the repair kits, coordinate with Neal and find the participants. I'm not sure if the kits are in stock at the moment on Japan Parts, I saw in another thread recently that they may be out of stock for a little while.
